  • Top 5 Web Analytics Tools for Your Site

    11 août 2023, par Erin — Analytics Tips

    At the start of July 2023, Universal Analytics (UA) users had to say goodbye to their preferred web analytics tool as Google discontinued it. While some find Google Analytics 4 (GA4) can do what they need, many GA4 users are starting to realise GA4 doesn’t meet all the needs UA once fulfilled. Consequently, they are actively seeking another web analytics tool to complement GA4 and address those unmet requirements effectively.

    In this article, we’ll break down five of the top web analytics tools on the market. You’ll find details about their core capabilities, pricing structures and some noteworthy pros and cons to help you decide which tool is the right fit for you. We’ve also included some key features a good web analytics tool should have to give you a baseline for comparison.

    Whether you’re a marketing manager focused on ROI of campaigns, a web analyst focused on conversions or simply interested in learning more about web analytics, there’s something for you on this list.

    What is a web analytics tool ?

    Web analytics tools collect and analyse information about your website’s visitors, their behaviour and the technical performance of your site. A web analytics tool compiles, measures and analyses website data to give you the information you need to improve site performance, boost conversions and increase your ROI.

    What makes a web analytics tool good ?

    Before we get into tool specifics, let’s go over some of the core features you can expect from a web analytics tool.

    For a web analytics tool to be worth your time (and money), it needs to cover the basics. For example :

    • Visitor reports : The number of visitors, whether they were unique or repeat visitors, the source of traffic (where they found your website), device information (if they’re using a desktop or mobile device) and demographic information like geographic location
    • Behaviour reports : What your visitors did while on your site, conversion rates (e.g., if they signed up for or purchased something), the pages they entered and exited from, average session duration, total time spent on a page and bounce rates (if they left without interacting with anything)
    • Technical information : Page loading speed and event tracking — where users are clicking, what they’re downloading or sharing from your site, if they’re engaging with the media on it and how far down the page they’re scrolling
    • Marketing campaign information : Breakdowns of ad campaigns by provider, showing if ads resulted in traffic to your site and lead to an eventual sale or conversion
    • Search Engine Optimisation (SEO) information : Which keywords on which pages are driving traffic to your site, and what search engines are they coming from
    • Real-time data tracking : Visitor, behaviour and technical information available in real-time, or close to it — allowing you to address to issues as they occur
    • Data visualisation : Charts and graphs illustrating the above information in an easily-readable format — helping identify opportunities and providing valuable insights you can leverage to improve site performance, conversion rates and the amount of time visitors spend on a page
    • Custom reporting : Create custom reports detailing the desired metrics and time frame you’re interested in
    • Security : User access controls and management tools to limit who can see and interact with user data
    • Resources : Official user guides, technical documentation, troubleshooting materials, customer support and community forums
    Google Analytics 4 dashboard

    Pros and Cons of Google Analytics 4

    Despite many users’ dissatisfaction, GA4 isn’t going away anytime soon. It’s still a powerful tool with all the standard features you’d expect. It’s the most popular choice for web analytics for a few other reasons, too, including :

    • It’s free to use
    • It’s easy to set up
    • It has a convenient mobile app
    • It has a wealth of user documentation and technical resources online
    • Its machine-learning capabilities help predict user behaviour and offer insights on how to grow your site
    • It integrates easily with other Google tools, like Google Search Console, Google Ads and Google Cloud

    That said, it comes with some serious drawbacks. Many users accustomed to UA have reported being unhappy with the differences between it and GA4. Their reasons range from changes to the user interface and bounce rate calculations, as well as Google’s switch from pageview-focused metrics to event-based ones. 

    Let’s take a look at some of the other cons :

    Now that you know GA4’s strengths and weaknesses, it’s time to explore other tools that can help fill in GA4’s gaps.

  • Overcoming Fintech and Finserv’s Biggest Data Analytics Challenges

    13 septembre 2024, par Daniel Crough — Banking and Financial Services, Marketing, Security

    Data powers innovation in financial technology (fintech), from personalized banking services to advanced fraud detection systems. Industry leaders recognize the value of strong security measures and customer privacy. A recent survey highlights this focus, with 72% of finance Chief Risk Officers identifying cybersecurity as their primary concern.

    Beyond cybersecurity, fintech and financial services (finserv) companies are bogged down with massive amounts of data spread throughout disconnected systems. Between this, a complex regulatory landscape and an increasingly tech-savvy and sceptical consumer base, fintech and finserv companies have a lot on their plates.

    How can marketing teams get the information they need while staying focused on compliance and providing customer value ? 

    This article will examine strategies to address common challenges in the finserv and fintech industries. We’ll focus on using appropriate tools, following effective data management practices, and learning from traditional banks’ approaches to similar issues.

    What are the biggest fintech data analytics challenges, and how do they intersect with traditional banking ?

    Recent years have been tough for the fintech industry, especially after the pandemic. This period has brought new hurdles in data analysis and made existing ones more complex. As the market stabilises, both fintech and finserve companies must tackle these evolving data issues.

    Let’s examine some of the most significant data analytics challenges facing the fintech industry, starting with an issue that’s prevalent across the financial sector :

    1. Battling data silos

    In a recent survey by InterSystems, 54% of financial institution leaders said data silos are their biggest barrier to innovation, while 62% said removing silos is their priority data strategy for the next year.

    a graphic highlighting fintech concerns about siloed data

    Data silos segregate data repositories across departments, products and other divisions. This is a major issue in traditional banking and something fintech companies should avoid inheriting at all costs.

    Siloed data makes it harder for decision-makers to view business performance with 360-degree clarity. It’s also expensive to maintain and operationalise and can evolve into privacy and data compliance issues if left unchecked.

    To avoid or remove data silos, develop a data governance framework and centralise your data repositories. Next, simplify your analytics stack into as few integrated tools as possible because complex tech stacks are one of the leading causes of data silos.

    Use an analytics system like Matomo that incorporates web analytics, marketing attribution and CRO testing into one toolkit.

    A screenshot of Matomo web analytics

    Matomo’s support plans help you implement a data system to meet the unique needs of your business and avoid issues like data silos. We also offer data warehouse exporting as a feature to bring all of your web analytics, customer data, support data, etc., into one centralised location.

    Try Matomo for free today, or contact our sales team to discuss support plans.

    2. Compliance with laws and regulations

    A survey by Alloy reveals that 93% of fintech companies find it difficult to meet compliance regulations. The cost of staying compliant tops their list of worries (23%), outranking even the financial hit from fraud (21%) – and this in a year marked by cyber threats.

    a bar chart shows the top concerns of fintech regulation compliance

    Data privacy laws are constantly changing, and the landscape varies across global regions, making adherence even more challenging for fintechs and traditional banks operating in multiple markets. 

    In the US market, companies grapple with regulations at both federal and state levels. Here are some of the state-level legislation coming into effect for 2024-2026 :

    Other countries are also ramping up regional regulations. For instance, Canada has Quebec’s Act Respecting the Protection of Personal Information in the Private Sector and British Columbia’s Personal Information Protection Act (BC PIPA).

    Ignorance of country- or region-specific laws will not stop companies from suffering the consequences of violating them.

    The only answer is to invest in adherence and manage business growth accordingly. Ultimately, compliance is more affordable than non-compliance – not only in terms of the potential fines but also the potential risks to reputation, consumer trust and customer loyalty.

    This is an expensive lesson that fintech and traditional financial companies have had to learn together. GDPR regulators hit CaixaBank S.A, one of Spain’s largest banks, with multiple multi-million Euro fines, and Klarna Bank AB, a popular Swedish fintech company, for €720,000.

    To avoid similar fates, companies should :

    1. Build solid data systems
    2. Hire compliance experts
    3. Train their teams thoroughly
    4. Choose data analytics tools carefully

    Remember, even popular tools like Google Analytics aren’t automatically safe. Find out how Matomo helps you gather useful insights while sticking to rules like GDPR.

    3. Protecting against data security threats

    Cyber threats are increasing in volume and sophistication, with the financial sector becoming the most breached in 2023.

    a bar chart showing the percentage of data breaches per industry from 2021 to 2023
<p>

    The cybersecurity risks will only worsen, with WEF estimating annual cybercrime expenses of up to USD $10.5 trillion globally by 2025, up from USD $3 trillion in 2015.

    While technology brings new security solutions, it also amplifies existing risks and creates new ones. A 2024 McKinsey report warns that the risk of data breaches will continue to increase as the financial industry increasingly relies on third-party data tools and cloud computing services unless they simultaneously improve their security posture.

    The reality is that adopting a third-party data system without taking the proper precautions means adopting its security vulnerabilities.

    In 2023, the MOVEit data breach affected companies worldwide, including financial institutions using its file transfer system. One hack created a global data crisis, potentially affecting the customer data of every company using this one software product.

    The McKinsey report emphasises choosing tools wisely. Why ? Because when customer data is compromised, it’s your company that takes the heat, not the tool provider. As the report states :

    “Companies need reliable, insightful metrics and reporting (such as security compliance, risk metrics and vulnerability tracking) to prove to regulators the health of their security capabilities and to manage those capabilities.”

    Don’t put user or customer data in the hands of companies you can’t trust. Work with providers that care about security as much as you do. With Matomo, you own all of your data, ensuring it’s never used for unknown purposes.

    A screenshot of Matomo visitor reporting

    4. Protecting users’ privacy

    With security threats increasing, fintech companies and traditional banks must prioritise user privacy protection. Users are also increasingly aware of privacy threats and ready to walk away from companies that lose their trust.

    Cisco’s 2023 Data Privacy Benchmark Study reveals some eye-opening statistics :

    • 94% of companies said their customers wouldn’t buy from them if their data wasn’t protected, and 
    • 95% see privacy as a business necessity, not just a legal requirement.

    Modern financial companies must balance data collection and management with increasing privacy demands. This may sound contradictory for companies reliant on dated practices like third-party cookies, but they need to learn to thrive in a cookieless web as customers move to banks and service providers that have strong data ethics.

    This privacy protection journey starts with implementing web analytics ethically from the very first session.

    A graphic showing the four key elements of ethical web analytics: 100% data ownership, respecting user privacy, regulatory compliance and Data transparency

    The most important elements of ethically-sound web analytics in fintech are :

    1. 100% data ownership : Make sure your data isn’t used in other ways by the tools that collect it.
    2. Respecting user privacy : Only collect the data you absolutely need to do your job and avoid personally identifiable information.
    3. Regulatory compliance : Stick with solutions built for compliance to stay out of legal trouble.
    4. Data transparency : Know how your tools use your data and let your customers know how you use it.

    Read our guide to ethical web analytics for more information.

    5. Comparing customer trust across industries 

    While fintech companies are making waves in the financial world, they’re still playing catch-up when it comes to earning customer trust. According to RFI Global, fintech has a consumer trust score of 5.8/10 in 2024, while traditional banking scores 7.6/10.

    a comparison of consumer trust in fintech vs traditional finance

    This trust gap isn’t just about perception – it’s rooted in real issues :

    • Security breaches are making headlines more often.
    • Privacy regulations like GDPR are making consumers more aware of their rights.
    • Some fintech companies are struggling to handle fraud effectively.

    According to the UK’s Payment Systems Regulator, digital banking brands Monzo and Starling had some of the highest fraudulent activity rates in 2022. Yet, Monzo only reimbursed 6% of customers who reported suspicious transactions, compared to 70% for NatWest and 91% for Nationwide.

    So, what can fintech firms do to close this trust gap ?

    • Start with privacy-centric analytics from day one. This shows customers you value their privacy from the get-go.
    • Build and maintain a long-term reputation free of data leaks and privacy issues. One major breach can undo years of trust-building.
    • Learn from traditional banks when it comes to handling issues like fraudulent transactions, identity theft, and data breaches. Prompt, customer-friendly resolutions go a long way.
    • Remember : cutting-edge financial technology doesn’t make up for poor customer care. If your digital bank won’t refund customers who’ve fallen victim to credit card fraud, they’ll likely switch to a traditional bank that will.

    The fintech sector has made strides in innovation, but there’s still work to do in establishing trustworthiness. By focusing on robust security, transparent practices, and excellent customer service, fintech companies can bridge the trust gap and compete more effectively with traditional banks.

    6. Collecting quality data

    Adhering to data privacy regulations, protecting user data and implementing ethical analytics raises another challenge. How can companies do all of these things and still collect reliable, quality data ?

    Google’s answer is using predictive models, but this replaces real data with calculations and guesswork. The worst part is that Google Analytics doesn’t even let you use all of the data you collect in the first place. Instead, it uses something called data sampling once you pass certain thresholds.

    In practice, this means that Google Analytics uses a limited set of your data to calculate reports. We’ve discussed GA4 data sampling at length before, but there are two key problems for companies here :

    1. A sample size that’s too small won’t give you a full representation of your data.
    2. The more visitors that come to your site, the less accurate your reports will become.

    For high-growth companies, data sampling simply can’t keep up. Financial marketers widely recognise the shortcomings of big tech analytics providers. In fact, 80% of them say they’re concerned about data bias from major providers like Google and Meta affecting valuable insights.

    This is precisely why CRO:NYX Digital approached us after discovering Google Analytics wasn’t providing accurate campaign data. We set up an analytics system to suit the company’s needs and tested it alongside Google Analytics for multiple campaigns. In one instance, Google Analytics failed to register 6,837 users in a single day, approximately 9.8% of the total tracked by Matomo.

    In another instance, Google Analytics only tracked 600 visitors over 24 hours, while Matomo recorded nearly 71,000 visitors – an 11,700% discrepancy.

    a data visualisation showing the discrepancy in Matomo's reporting vs Google Analytics

    Financial companies need a more reliable, privacy-centric alternative to Google Analytics that captures quality data without putting users at potential risk. This is why we built Matomo and why our customers love having total control and visibility of their data.

  • How to dump ALL metadata from a media file, including cover image title ? [closed]

    9 avril, par Unideal

    I have an MP3 song :

    &#xA;

    # ffprobe -hide_banner -i filename.mp3&#xA;Input #0, mp3, from &#x27;filename.mp3&#x27;:&#xA;  Metadata:&#xA;    composer        : Music Author&#xA;    title           : Song Name&#xA;    artist          : Singer&#xA;    encoder         : Lavf61.7.100&#xA;    genre           : Rock&#xA;    date            : 2025&#xA;  Duration: 00:03:14.04, start: 0.023021, bitrate: 208 kb/s&#xA;  Stream #0:0: Audio: mp3 (mp3float), 48000 Hz, stereo, fltp, 192 kb/s&#xA;      Metadata:&#xA;        encoder         : Lavc61.19&#xA;  Stream #0:1: Video: png, rgb24(pc, gbr/unknown/unknown), 600x600 [SAR 1:1 DAR 1:1], 90k tbr, 90k tbn (attached pic)&#xA;      Metadata:&#xA;        title           : Cover&#xA;        comment         : Cover (front)&#xA;

    &#xA;

    The task is to save its metadata to a text file and restore from that file later. Both goals should be accomplished with ffmpeg.

    &#xA;

    The simpliest method is to run :

    &#xA;

    # ffmpeg -i filename.mp3 -f ffmetadata metadata.txt&#xA;

    &#xA;

    After that, metadata.txt contains :

    &#xA;

    ;FFMETADATA1&#xA;composer=Music Author&#xA;title=Song Name&#xA;artist=Singer&#xA;date=2025&#xA;genre=Rock&#xA;encoder=Lavf61.7.100&#xA;

    &#xA;

    I got global metadata only, but stream-specific info (cover image title and comment in my case) are missing.

    &#xA;

    Google suggested a more complex form of the command above to extract all metadata fields without any exclusions :

    &#xA;

    # ffmpeg -y -i filename.mp3 -c copy -map_metadata 0 -map_metadata:s:v 0:s:v -map_metadata:s:a 0:s:a -f ffmetadata metadata.txt&#xA;

    &#xA;

    But the output is exactly the same :

    &#xA;

    ;FFMETADATA1&#xA;composer=Music Author&#xA;title=Song Name&#xA;artist=Singer&#xA;date=2025&#xA;genre=Rock&#xA;encoder=Lavf61.7.100&#xA;

    &#xA;

    Again, no info about the attached image.

    &#xA;

    Please explain what am I doing wrong.
